in his nose

Morphological NotesPreposition בְּ ("in") + masculine singular construct noun אַף + 3rd masculine singular suffix וֹ ("his").
Rendering RationaleThe noun אַף (ʾaph) literally means "nose" or "nostril," from which the figurative sense of anger arises (from flaring or heated breathing). The form is masculine singular construct with a 3ms pronominal suffix and prefixed בְּ ("in"), yielding "in his nose," preserving both the concrete root meaning and the grammatical details.
